Chapter 40: Shocked(1/2)
The lord waiter of the Fanhua Collar was a middle-aged man. Not to mention his big belly, his head was even brighter, and his light reflected under the candlelight.
The other party's clothes are luxurious but slightly vulgar.
On a silk jacket, I wish I could hang all the gold and silver on it. Every step I took would make a jingle sound.
"I have met Lord Priest and Lord Post."
The messenger bent down hard to make himself appear humble and respectful.
Unfortunately, the other person's belly was too big.
It was so big that the other party could not bend down even if he tried his best.
The other party obviously knew this, and after saying the salute, he immediately started to go straight to the point.
"I come on behalf of our Lord."
"Our Lord Lord wants to get the support of Aiya Post and jointly defend against those monsters."
"Of course, we are willing to stand on the side of Aiya Post for this purpose. No matter what decision Aiya Post makes, we will support it!"
The other party said with a high sound, but the words hidden in the secret surprised Nelson.
He glanced at Etraina, and with the acquiescent of the priestess, the post chief spoke directly.
“All decisions?”
"Including helping Aiya Post build another outer wall?"
The postman asked.
"certainly!"
"With the 'hero' Lord Ryan, it's only right to help Aiya Post build an outer wall."
"However, we hope other lords can give more, do you understand?"
The messenger in front of him looked at the outpost leader with a smile.
And Nelson finally understood what the other party was planning.
To harm others and not to benefit oneself.
No!
To be precise, it is: more losses to others and keep oneself.
Just, just...
After thinking for a moment, the fair and strict postman did not come up with a perfect word to describe his state of mind at this moment.
He had long known that the lords on the Yot Plain were very unbearable, but he did not expect that they would reach this level.
At the same time, he thought again about the true meaning of the former postman when he became the postman, "Ignore those guys, the meaning of the Aiya Post is to clear the bandits on the way to Navia City."
Sure enough, don't you care?
Thinking of the useless efforts he has done in the past two years, the postman couldn't help but smile bitterly.
then?
The whole talk was handed over to Etrana.
After a few words, the messenger of the Lord of the Fanhua Leader became sweating profusely.
A qualified negotiator will never see the chips on the other party’s table, but also see the chips hidden by the other party.
Undoubtedly, Etraina is an extremely qualified negotiator.
She doubled the chips she could have obtained more than doubled.
Enough food for two thousand people to eat for a year.
A laborer with no less than one thousand people must be a strong one.
There must be craftsmen with ten to twenty people, with considerable skills and cannot be apprentices.
So much so that when the messenger from Fanhualing left, his face turned pale and his steps were staggering.
"What a group of guys who only know about infighting."
The postman sighed.
He could not imagine what the other party had agreed to such harsh conditions because of his mentality. After all, such conditions were completely profitable.
You know, the Fanhua Ling is not a big territory. Among the dozens of lords in the Yot Plain, they can only be ranked at the end.
"Because, he firmly believes that he will get more."
"In his mind, he probably began to plan how to regain his losses exponentially - to those lords who are on the plains of Jot!"
"I can guarantee that once we have gathered enough people here to make a certain lord's territory empty, it is when they send troops."
Etraina sneered.
She knew exactly what the other party was thinking.
In fact, in recent decades, such things have been happening constantly on the Yorte Plain.
Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
However, this time it was different. What she wanted...but everything!
It's the entire Yorte Plain!
"You mean?"
The postman looked at Etrana later.
Before Atrina could answer, the messenger came to preach again—
"Prince Etraina, the head of the Nelson Post, and the lord of the 'Matsutake Corps', asked for a visit."
Suddenly, the postman looked at Etrana in amazement.
The priestess smiled.
She said word by word.
"I said that they will not only agree to our conditions, but also rush to agree - because we have more than one partner!"
...
The rising sun was rising, and the golden sun shone outside the Aiya Post.
The soldiers on the city wall looked vigilantly towards the city of Navia, and a faint disdain appeared in their eyes as they looked at the extremely rich Yot Plain.
In the past two days, absurd things about the lords of the Jot Plain have spread throughout the outpost.
There is no saying that the wooden sword and wooden sword are fighting.
Even if you fall and get injured on a horse, you can be called a brave man.
In order to better decorate the camp, there were endless deeds such as cowhide on the grass and silk hanging on the branches.
When the soldiers thought of being wary of such an enemy, they couldn't help but curl their lips.
But soon, this disdain became more solemn when he looked towards Navia City.
Although there have been sporadic monsters in the past two days, every battle is extremely difficult.
If there were no walls of Aiya Post, they would probably face repeated reductions in their posts.
Therefore, when the lookout hand saw the black line appearing on the horizon, the alarm bell immediately sounded.
The fully armed soldiers climbed the city wall.
The Knights were even divided into bunkers, serving as firefighters on the battlefield to support more dangers.
As for fighting out of the city?
The area of the black line at the end of the horizon gives them a more rational choice.
However, as the black line got closer, the lookout hand standing at the highest point made a surprise cry-
"Convoy!"
"It's the convoy of the temple!"
...
The sound echoed over the mail, and people's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and then they looked into the distance with joy.
Is there anything more joy than the people coming to Navia?
Of course, there is a departing Qin Ran in this team.
"Open the city gate!"
Etraina couldn't wait to say it, and rode her horse outward.
Nelson followed closely with a team of Cavaliers.
The two teams met in front of Aiya Post.
To be continued...
